[ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.
12-12-12. What a very very sad day. We lost a very dear friend, Raj Mathur. People who knew and have met Raj will always remember him as a lively and humourous person - brutally honest and a man of principles. Raj was a founder member of the Indian Linux Users Group and a very active member of the Free and Open Source community. Well respected and extremely knowledgable, he was often sought after for advice which he readily dispersed. Raj loved to have fun and encouraged everyone around him to do the same. He loved his food, his movies, his music and being with friends and family. A brilliant hacker and much respected for his pioneering work, he will be missed by one and all. Rest in peace, Raj Oldmonk Mathur. -- ___ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd

I have many happy memories of running into Raj at a coffee shop that I used to frequent-- and many times Raj would insist on ordering a capuchinno for me too. This is shocking-- what happened exactly to Raj ? Was he unwell ? OR was it a accident OR violence ? Also, if there is a address / link to the rituals-- even I would like to go and offer my condolences. Regards, Nalin ps: Request Kishore or any others who are aware to send me a unicast email. pps: mailed Kishore/Niyam-- but incase anyone else is online at this hour and aware of details regarding last rites-- incase they happen tomorrow early-- do also feel free to drop me a email. ___ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
Re: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.
This is really shocking. Read the email several times to believe it. Had the pleasure of working with Raj on a project for Accenture, running around to buy stuff (under his guidance) for a ilugd event and a new years eve at his place. -- sent from shekhar's galaxy nexus phone On Dec 13, 2012 1:00 AM, Kishore Bhargava kish...@linkaxis.com wrote: 12-12-12.

Re: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.
That's really sad news. Raj was my first link to ILUG-D when I pinged him after seeing his email on the linux-india mailing lists, back in 1997-98. Over the years, he became a great friend and mentor, and I learned a lot from him. He was also a regular on IRC, well respected across various networks and that was probably the easiest means of staying in touch with him remotely. Some of my most enduring memories are of him organizing meetups at his place and offering an endless supply of excellent coffee with cream over discussions about all sorts of technology; of the initial linux asia conferences, of freed.in, and the many late night jaunts to defcol that became a defining feature of ilugd meets. He was a man of principles, sticking by his guns and openly questioning anything he didn't believe in. His warm personality, great sense of humour and his insightful opinions on a wide variety of topics will be greatly missed. Rest in peace, Raj. -- Viksit Gaur From: Kishore Bhargava kish...@linkaxis.com To: The Linux-Delhi mailing list ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 11:30 AM Subject: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news. 12-12-12.

Re: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.
This is really sad news. I remember working with him during the open standards fight and admired his determination to ensure that proprietary standards did not prevail. In fact, one of the crucial meetings during the open standards fight was held in his house. He was such a lovable and outspoken eccentric with his heart in the right place. I will miss him. RIP Raj!

Re: [ilugd] Shocking and Sad news.
A very sad day indeed. I can't believe...it. Raj has always been helpful to all the people of different age group. I learned a lot from him during my early days by merely knowing him in couple of ILUGD meetings.

[ilugd] Sad news
I remember the excited face of Raj whenever he used to work on Linux. He would work on it as a musician with his instruments. He would motivate others to follow and give great suggestions that would solve most complex problems. He will be missed. I wish i had spent more time with him learning.
